Church in Attirory

Located at the top of a prominent drumlin with a N-S section of the River Shannon c. 300m to the W. There is no evidence of a church structure at the ecclesiastical enclosure (LE031-039003-). Nor has any early saint been identified as associated with it (Ó Riain 2011), but the ecclesiastical enclosure at Attirory (LE031-039003-) is undoubtedly the site of an early monastery and the bullaun stone (LE031-039002-) helps to confirm it. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 15 October 2019 Amended: 10 January 2020
